A picnic sounds charming until someone has to pack it. At Fanhams Hall in Ware, Hertfordshire, the work is already done: guests can order a prepared basket with savoury staples, seasonal extras and desserts, packaged with a blanket for use across the grounds.
Available daily from 12.30pm to 4pm between 1 May and 30 September 2026, the picnic is designed for a relaxed lunch between check-in, garden walks or an afternoon at the estate. Guests can choose a secluded spot or open lawn space, making it a flexible alternative to a formal restaurant booking. It is a simple seasonal offer, but a useful one: food prepared by the hotel, served wherever the grounds feel right.
